Definitions
- the present subject matter relates generally to work vehicles and, more particularly, to a cab suspension system for a work vehicle having circumferentially extending bump stops.
- Such cabs sometimes referred to as "operator environments” also provide a central location to which controls and operator interfaces may be fed, and from which most or all of the vehicle functions may be easily controlled.
- Conventional cab mounting systems typically include some type of rollover protection system (ROPS) designed to prevent the cab from being crushed during a roll-over event.
- ROPS rollover protection system
- U.S. Application Ser. No. 13/528,655 entitled “Cab Suspension System for an Off-Road Vehicle” and filed June 20, 2012, discloses a suspension system including an outer ROPS tube mounted to the cab suspension superstructure and an inner ROPS tube extending from a suspension platform of the chassis frame, with the inner ROPS tube being received within the outer ROPS tube.
- the outer ROPS tube is configured to be displaced relative to the inner ROPS tube until the outer ROPS tube engages or otherwise contacts the suspension platfornn, thereby preventing any further motion of the cab relative to the chassis frame.
- the present subject matter is directed to a cab suspension system for coupling a cab frame to a chassis frame of a work vehicle.
- the chassis frame may include a suspension platform.
- the suspension system may generally include a pad configured to be coupled to the cab frame and an outer tube extending from the pad in a direction of the suspension platform.
- the outer tube may define a circumference.
- the suspension system may include a bump stop coupled to the outer tube. The bump stop may extend around a portion of the circumference of the outer tube. Moreover, at least a portion the bump stop may extend below the outer tube such that the bump stop is configured to contact the suspension platform prior to the outer tube when the outer tube is moved in the direction of the suspension platform.
- the present subject matter is directed to a work vehicle including a chassis frame, a cab frame and a suspension system coupled between the chassis frame and the cab frame.
- the suspension system may include a pad configured to be coupled to the cab frame and an outer tube extending from the pad in a direction of a suspension platform of the chassis frame.
- the outer tube may define a circumference.
- the suspension system may include a bump stop coupled to the outer tube. The bump stop may extend around a portion of the circumference of the outer tube. Moreover, at least a portion the bump stop may extend below the outer tube such that the bump stop is configured to contact the suspension platform prior to the outer tube when the outer tube is moved in the direction of the suspension platform.

- FIG. 9 illustrates a perspective view showing a cab frame exploded away from the cab suspension system.
- the present subject matter is directed to a cab suspension system for a work vehicle, such as a tractor, combine, construction vehicle and/or any other suitable off-road vehicle.
- a work vehicle such as a tractor, combine, construction vehicle and/or any other suitable off-road vehicle.
- the disclosed system generally utilizes a four-link system, including rubber isolators and bumpers, springs, dampers, and a torsion bar, for various ride improvement components that combine to absorb normal operating shocks, while gradually increasing resistance to provide soft end of motion.
- the system may also utilize circumferentially extending bump stops in order to prevent rubbing and/or contact between certain adjacent components of the system.
- springs captured by rubber end caps may be mounted vertically in the four corners of the system. These springs may allow for spring force control of loading during normal operating vertical motion with isolation of both noise and vibration. In addition, the springs may also provide for roll and pitch resistance.
- cab roll under normal conditions may be controlled by an antiroll bar mounted on the vehicle frame with drop links connecting to the cab suspension superstructure (i.e., the upper components of the suspension system that connect to the cab frame).
- the torsion bar may help to keep the cab level by transferring offsetting vertical forces to combat cab roll motion.
- both roll and pitch motions may be dampened by dampers located at the four corners of the suspension system. Motion may be further dampened with increasing cab travel when motion snubbing rubber down-stops and up-stops come into contact with the chassis frame and/or any roll-over protection system (ROPS) components.
- ROPS roll-over protection system
- dampening and motion resisting components themselves become engaged in increasing frequency, combining for increased resistance over the total cab motion stroke, thus providing smooth and gradual motion at the end of stroke.
- down-stops and up-stops also ensure that the dampers are never taken to full stroke by heavy cabs.
- front-to-back and side-to-side motion may be controlled by longitudinal links and panhard bars. These links may be mounted between the cab suspension superstructure and the vehicle chassis to minimize front-to-back and side-to-side motion, respectively.
- the cab suspension superstructure of the disclosed system may be configured to be connected to the cab frame at four cab mounting pads and ROPS tubes.
- the dampers, longitudinal links, panhard bars, drop links, down-stops and ROPS mounting parts may be assembled onto the pads, reducing assembly time in the main vehicle assembly line or manufacturing cell.
- the cab suspension system may be assembled to the vehicle frame prior to placement of the cab on the cab
- the top of the cab suspension system may include two piloting tapered pins in opposite corners to help align the cab frame to the suspension system. This may ensure the line-up of the bolt holes that are utilized to secure the cab frame to the suspension system.
- the cab superstructure may also serve as an assembly fixture to align the four ROPS pads. The pins may allow the cab to be dropped onto the cab superstructure quickly and may place the cab accurately.
- the cab superstructure incorporates all of the upper suspension mounting features, thus allowing the bottom of the cab to remain flat, or to assume a structural presentation that facilitates its manufacture and transport.
- the suspension superstructure may accommodate many different cabs with less adaptation than known arrangements (with little or no change to the frame).
- chassis frame may also be modified to provide mounting points for the links, dampers, torsion bar, and ROPS bolts.
- the chassis frame may include an inner ROPS tube that provides a mechanical stop for roll-over motion. The relationship between the outer (on cab
- ROPS tubes allow the ROPS bolts to be put in almost pure tension during roll-over, thus providing a robust design.
- the tube-in-tube design may protect the springs, prevent extreme side-to-side motion during roll-over, and allow for any water and dirt that may enter into the ROPS system to exit. This reduces the possibility of rust and dirt buildup in the ROPS system.
- each bump stop may be coupled to one of the outer ROPS tubes so as to extend downwards towards a suspension platform of the chassis frame.
- each bump stop may define a curved or arced shape that permits the bump stop to extend around a portion of the circumference of its corresponding ROPS tube.
- the bump stops may be configured to extend circumferentially around a 90 degree section of each tube along the corners of the system. As such, the bump stops may prevent the outer ROPS tubes from contacting the suspension platforms regardless of the direction in which the cab is displaced during normal operation of the work vehicle.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a perspective view of one embodiment of a work vehicle 10. As shown, the work vehicle 10 is
- the work vehicle 10 may be configured as any other suitable work vehicle known in the art, including those for agricultural and construction applications, transport, sport, and/or the like.
- the work vehicle 10 includes a pair of front tracks 12, a pair or rear tracks 16 and a chassis 16 coupled to and supported by the tracks 12, 14.
- the work vehicle 10 may also include an engine and a transmission (not shown) supported by the chassis 16, which may be used to rotationally drive the front tracks 12 and/or the rear tracks 14.
- an operator's cab 18 may be supported by a portion of the chassis 16 and may house various control devices (not shown) for permitting an operator to control the operation of the work vehicle 10.
- the cab 18 may be mounted on the chassis 16 via the disclosed suspension system 20.
- the work vehicle 10 may include tires in lieu of tracks 12, 14 or may include a combination of tires and tracks.
- FIGS. 2-4 various views of one embodiment of a cab suspension system 20 suitable for use with the work vehicle 10 shown in FIG. 1 are illustrated in accordance with aspects of the present subject matter.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a perspective view of the cab suspension system 20.
- FIG. 3 illustrates another top perspective view of the suspension system 20 shown in FIG. 2 rotated 180 degrees, particularly illustrating various components of the system 20 being exploded out at one of the corners of the system 20.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a bottom perspective view of one of the corners of the suspension system 20.
- the suspension system 20 may define a framework structure that is intended to be coupled between the chassis 16 and the cab 18.
- the system 20 may generally include a suspension superstructure 22 configured to rest just below the cab 16 when assembled on the vehicle 10.
- the superstructure 22 may include a plurality of flattened areas or pads 24 for supporting matching mounting structures on the cab frame (see, e.g., FIG. 9), with each pad 24 being at one of four corners of the system 20.
- the superstructure 22 may include a plurality of cylindrical outer tubes 26 extending from the pads 24. For example, as particularly shown in FIG. 4, each outer tube 26 may extend outwardly from a bottom surface 27 of one of the pads 24.
- various rods and/or links may be configured to extend between the pads 24 and/or tubes 26.
- tie rods 28 may extend between one or more of the pads 24 and/or outer tubes 26 in order to maintain the spatial relationship between the pads 24 prior to mounting the cab 16 onto the superstructure 22.
- the tie rods 28 may be connected to the pads 24 and/or tubes 26 using a welded connection, bolts, brackets, or any other suitable connection.
- a lateral link 30 may be provided on either side of the super structure 22 for control of longitudinal suspension motion.
- the lateral links 30 may be pivotally connected to the bottom surface 27 of the pads 22.
- a rear link 32 may similarly tie the rear pads 24 to control lateral suspension motion, and may be similarly pivotally connected to the bottom surface 27 of the pads 22 ( and/or between the outer tubes 26). Moreover, a front link 34 may extend between the front pads 24 and/or outer tubes 26 to further control lateral suspension motion.
- the system 20 may also include mounting assemblies 36 configured to support the superstructure 22 (and the cab 18) on the chassis 16, as will be described below.
- Anti-roll structures 38 may be tied to one another by an anti-roll bar 40.
- Drop links 42 may link the front pads 24 to the anti-roll bar 40.
- a damper 44 may be disposed at each corner of the system 20 to provide dampening of suspension motion. These dampers 44 may generally extend between the bottom surface 27 of the pads 24 (or some other superstructure component) and points on the chassis 16 (not shown in FIG. 2) where the suspension system 20 is mounted.
- each mounting assembly 36 may be at least partially housed within one of the outer tubes 26.
- Each assembly 36 may include an upper rubber cup 46, a compression spring 48, a lower rubber cup 50, an up-stop 52 and a retaining plate 54.
- a spacer 56 extends through these elements, and the entire assembly 36 is held in place by a retaining bolt 58 (and a corresponding nut).
- the upper rubber cup 46 may be configured to maintain the compression spring 48 centered in the outer tube 26 on the suspension superstructure 22.
- the lower rubber cup 50 may similarly maintain the compression spring 48 centered in an inner cylindrical tube 64 (FIG. 6) of the chassis 16.
- the rubber up-stop 52 may control upward suspension motion, while the lower retaining plate 54 may accept forces on the structure 22 when placed in compression by the bolt 56.
- the shape of the up-stop 52 may allow for increased motion resistance as the structure is progressively compressed. That is, in the illustrated embodiment, rubber portions of the up-stop 52 may be thicker near an upper plate on which the rubber portions are mounted. The thinner sections provide a relatively lower spring constant than the thicker portions near the upper plate, such that increasing compression results in a greater spring constant resisting further motion. This, in conjunction with the rubber cups 46, 50 and springs 48, allows for excellent end-of-travel performance, and smooth and gradual motion at the end of stroke of the assemblies.
- the suspension system 20 is shown installed on a frame 60 of the vehicle chassis 16. It should be appreciated that the particular configuration of the frame 60 shown in FIG. 5 is merely illustrated to provide one example of a suitable chassis frame 60. However, it should be appreciated that the present subject matter may generally be utilized with any suitable frame configuration.
- the chassis frame 60 may include a plurality of suspension platforms 62 configured to support the weight of the system 20 (and the cab 16). Each platform 62 may generally be configured to be aligned with one of the pads 24 when the superstructure 22 is installed onto the frame 60.
- a cylindrical, inner tube 64 may extend upwardly from each platform 62 such that the inner tubes 64 are received within the outer tubes 26 when the pads 24 and platforms 62 are properly aligned during assembly.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a cross-sectional view through a pair of aligned pads 24 and platforms 62.
- the inner and outer tubes 64, 26 may be concentrically aligned along a vertical axis 66 when the superstructure 22 is installed into the frame 60, with the inner tube 64 being at least partially received within the outer tube 26.
- the inner tube 64 may only be partially received within the outer tube 26 such that a gap 68 is defined between the outer tube 26 and the suspension platform 62.
- the force exerted on the suspension system 20 may cause the spring 48 to be compressed so that the outer tube 26 is displaced relative to the inner tube 64 and
- the disclosed system 20 may also include a plurality of bump stops 70 configured to prevent the outer tubes 26 from contacting the suspension platforms 62 during normal vehicle operation.
- the system 20 may include four bump stops 70, with each bump stop 70 being coupled to one of the outer tubes 26.
- each bump stop 70 may be coupled to a lip or flange 72 of each outer tube 26 and may extend outwardly from each flange 72 in the direction of the suspension platforms 62.
- the bump stops 70 may be configured to extend from the flanges 72 so that a portion of each bump stop 70 is positioned below the bottom of each outer tube 26 when the suspension system 20 is a state of equilibrium.
- the bump stop 70 may contact the suspension platform 62 and apply an upward force against the outer tube 26, thereby preventing the outer tube 26 from contacting the suspension platform 62.
- the configuration, shape and/or material of the bump stops 70 may be selected such that the bump stops 70 are capable of providing sufficient resistance to motion in order to prevent the outer tubes 26 from contacting the suspension platforms 62 during normal vehicle operation while also being capable of compressing under the forces associated with a roll-over event in a manner that allows for contact between the outer tubes 26 and the suspension platforms 62.
- the bottom stops 70 may be formed from a suitable resilient material, such as a rubber material or any other suitable elastomeric material, that provides the desired characteristics described above.
- each bump stop 70 may define a tapered profile, with the width of the bump stops 70 decreasing in the direction of the suspension platforms 62. As such, the resistance to motion provided by each bump stop 70 may be increased with increased compression of the bump stop 70.
- the bumps stops 70 may be coupled to the flanges 72 of the outer tubes 26 using any suitable attachment means known in the art.
- suitable mechanical fasteners 74 e.g., bolts, screws and/or the like
- the bump stops 70 may be coupled to the flanges 72 using any other suitable means, such as by adhering the bump stops 70 to the flanges 72.
- each bump stop 70 may define a curved or arced shape that permits the bump stops 70 to extend circumferentially around a portion of each outer tube 26.
- each bump stop 70 may be shaped so as to extend circumferentially along a curved reference line 76 concentrically aligned with each outer tube 26 about its vertical axis 66.
- the bump stops 70 may be positioned on the outer tubes 26 so as to extend around a corner point 78 defined at a location on the circumference of each outer tube 26.
- corner point 78 refers to a point along the circumference of each outer tube 26 that is aligned with and/or adjacent to one of the four corners of the suspension system 20.
- FIG. 7 illustrates a simplified, top view of the four outer tubes 26 of the disclosed system 20 with an imaginary box 80 extending between the outer tubes 26 such that each corner 82 of the box 80 is aligned with one of the vertical axes 66 of the outer tubes 26.
- the corner point 78 of each outer tube 26 may be defined by the point along the circumference of each tube 26 at which a 45° reference line 84 extending outwardly from each corner 82 of the box 80 intersects such outer tube 26.
- the bump stops 70 may extend around the corner points 78 of the outer tubes 26 by extending around the circumference of each outer tube 26 along either side of the corner point 78.
- the bump stops 70 may be configured to extend around any suitable circumferential portions of the outer tubes 26 the encompass the center points 78.
- the bumps stops 70 may be centered at the corner points 78 and may extend around a 90° portion of the circumference of each outer tube 26 (i.e., by extending around the outer tube 26 45° on either side of the corner point 78).
- each bump stop 70 may provide motion resistance covering a 90° section of the potential cab displacement between the pitch and roll directions (indicated by arrows 86, 88 in FIG. 7), thereby preventing the outer tubes 26 from contacting the suspension platforms 62 regardless of the direction of any cab displacement (i.e., full 360° protection).
- the bump stops 70 need not be centered at the corner points 78.
- bumps stops 70 may generally extend around any suitable portion of the circumference of the outer tubes 26.
- the degree at which the bumps stops 70 extend around the circumference of the outer tubes 26 may range from about 45° to about 360°, such as from about 70° to about 180° or from about 80° to about 135° and all other subranges therebetween.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 different perspective views showing how a cab frame 90 may be mounted onto the suspension system 20 are illustrated in accordance with aspects of the present subject matter.
- at least two of the pads 24 of the super structure 22 may include alignment pins 92 extending upwardly to receive corresponding alignment apertures in the cab frame 90 (FIG. 9). These pins 92 may be tapered to cause progressive alignment as the cab frame 90 is lowered onto the suspension system 20.
- FIG. 9 illustrates the cab frame 90 being lowered onto the suspension system 20.
- cab frames may be accommodated, and these may include pads or feet 94 that contact and interface with the pads 24 of the suspension system 20.
- the feet 94 may include one or more apertures for fasteners that will align with similar apertures of the pads 24 as the cab frame 90 is lowered onto the alignment pins 92.
- the cab frame 92 may then be bolted to the suspension system 20 and subsequent assembly, wiring, and other operations may be carried out.
- the cab suspension described above improves operator ride comfort and productivity by reducing road vibration from tire lugs or tracks, while also absorbing sudden jolts as the vehicle moves over rough terrain.
- a prototype of the system was tested to provide an operator ride index, in accordance with SAE standard J2834. The ride was found to be superior to front pivot suspension designs, providing improvements of 19-45 % in ride index.
